11th Philippine Robotics Olympiad Advisory Committee Meeting

Today, June 1, 2012, the 11th Philippine Robotics Olympiad Advisory Committee had our meeting to culminate this year's Robotics event.

Looking back, I am still in awe that from 2002 with only 36 teams, in 2011 we now have 286 teams participating in the PRO. We expect to have over 300 teams in 2012. Over 4,600+ student's lives have been touched...most of them have taken an Engineering, Computer Science or related S&T course in College. My next step is to begin the tedious task of organizing a Philippine Robotics Olympiad Alumni Association (PROAA). A group of former PRO students who are now part of the IT workforce or have proceeded to venture into an Engineering career.

I will NEVER tire of seeing the smiling faces of these "young geniuses"...when they see their Robots completing a task/challenge , dancing, singing, planting, cooking or even playing Tic-tac-toe! Techies Rock.
